Strange how a convent school, not generally known for their liberality, has some of the most broad-minded and helpful guidelines for creatives.

For me, one of the most helpful is rule eight about not trying to create and analyze at the same time. I know artists who are paralyzed into inaction by over-thinking what they do, and so I try not to bother thinking about it at all.

Until afterwards. Or later. Or maybe never.

I made some of these composite images from stills where I have accidentally captured myself during timelapse shoots. My photoshop skills are not great, but I’m getting better, and some of them are a bit rough. But I really like them.

I don’t know if I can manage 365+1 for the whole year (it’s a leap year) but I don’t see why not, and I might start staging more of them like the one shown at the top.http://bolam365.wordpress.com

I don’t know what they are, or what they mean. But what I do know is that they are something, and that I am making them, and that I have not allow any thinking to get in the way.

I’ll leave the analysis until later, and wait for the X quantities to kick in.
